Yaist, Raymond Andrew

  Raymond Andrew Yaist, infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Clay Yaist of Youngstown, 
Ohio, was buried in the Union cemetery in this place on March 24. Mr. Yaist is 
the son of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Yaist of Transmeyersdale and has been employed in 
Youngstown for the past year. Mrs. Yaist was formerly Miss Ruth McKenzie of 
Garrett. She was not able to attend the funeral as she was detained at home by 
the illness of their oldest child. Little Raymond was but 11 months old and died 
of measles and pneumonia. Undertaker Reich conducted the funeral and Rev. H. L. 
Coughenour officiated at the burial, the remains being taken directly from the 
train to its last resting place. Much sympathy is felt for the young couple in 
their bereavement.
